AMSR: The Archive of Market and Social Research

The AMSR is a living, searchable digitised archive of high quality research data and commentary. Drawn from the output of respected market research and social research practitioners over many decades, it forms an inspiring source of insight for those seeking to explore the dynamics of change – in the past, the present and crucially, for the future.
